Graduate Programme, Module: Design Studio M5 2009/10, 18 ECTS
Djordje Stojanović, Milutin Cerović.
Summer term plan will continue developing ‘Far from Home’ agenda set for the 0910 school year. The focus is on the Concrete Hall in Belgrade, a river front building already being transformed from a warehouse to a hub of versatile uses. We will be looking to introduce new and compatible uses and explore any potential for further expansion. The benefits of introducing an additional layer to the existing volume will be assessed against contextual relation with the river on one side and medieval fortress on the other. Suggested take on the topic will be based on the understanding of the material systems and form making though synchronization of organizational, geometric, structural and energy efficient properties.
